Other Groups and Committees

Wollongong City Council supports a number of community Reference Groups and Advisory Committees as a means of engaging with the community

Reference Groups

Reference group members provide Council management with information, knowledge and advice on their specific area of interest or issue and group members should also represent the views of the community. A central focus of the reference groups is to provide input into Council’s Community Strategic Plan and other relevant Council policies.

Advisory Committees

Advisory Committee Members provide expert advice to Council management on their area of expertise, relative to the functions of the particular Committee.

Section 355 Committees

Section 355 Committees are delegated, by resolution of Council, to exercise particular functions of Council and to provide advice to Council management in relation to the functions of the particular Committee. These Committees have limited delegations granted to them by Council, which allows the Committee to make decisions on Council’s behalf, within the limits of those delegations.
